The Michigan League of Conservation Voters has issued its report card on which legislators are mindful of the Mitten's natural assets and which are - ahem - no friend of clean air, water and responsible stewardship.
Excerpt:
"House members from both parties were recognized by the group as advocates, with Reps. Joe Haveman (R-Holland), Sam Singh (D-East Lansing), Wayne Schmidt (R-Traverse City), Frank Foster (R-Pellston) and Sarah Roberts (D-St. Clair Shores) winning favor for sponsoring bills on environmental issues.
The lowest overall score went to the chair of the Senate natural resources committee Sen. Tom Casperson (R-Escanaba) scoring 0 percent. House natural resources committee chair Rep. Andrea LaFontaine (R-Richmond) scored at 30 percent."
